Look to the Skies...

From faculty member Parke Kunkle:

Hi all you early risers
If you were up and sky gazing this morning about 5am, the sky was gorgeous. Orion and his entourage bedazzle the morning skies. But this morning, Venus shone brightly with the crescent Moon above it.

Keep watching over the next two mornings. By Wednesday at about 6am look east for a very thin crescent Moon right next to Venus. Beautiful.

Clear skies all.
